EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled 'Three Basset Hounds' and dated back to 1890, showcases the charming and historic breed of hound known as the Basset Hound. The image, captured by an unknown photographer and held in the extensive archive of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a window into the world of these beloved dogs during the late Victorian era. Basset Hounds, with their distinctive short legs, long ears, and expressive eyes, have been a popular breed since their origin in France during the 1500s. They were originally bred for hunting hares and other small game, with their low stature allowing them to trail prey in rough terrain. This photograph captures the essence of their endearing appearance and playful nature, as the three hounds sit together, their ears flopped over, and their curious eyes fixed on something just out of frame. The historical significance of this photograph lies not only in its depiction of a beloved breed but also in the context of the time period. The late 1800s marked a time when the popularity of dogs as pets began to rise, and the Basset Hound, with its unique appearance and hunting prowess, was a favorite among the aristocracy and the middle class alike. This photograph serves as a reminder of the rich history and enduring appeal of the Basset Hound breed, which continues to capture the hearts of dog lovers around the world. In conclusion, this photograph of 'Three Basset Hounds' is a treasure from the past, offering a glimpse into the history of this beloved breed and the role they played in the lives of Victorians. The image, held in the Mary Evans Picture Library, is a testament to the enduring charm and appeal of the Basset Hound, and a reminder of the important place they hold in our hearts and history.
